Default FE intake gaskets
Looking for gaskets for weber intake to E'brock heads on my 427 BB. Heads have been milled slightly to bump up comp to 10:1, intake ports had been opened to 2.5" x 1.4" before I got it, so std fel-pro 1247's don't work, plus they need to be thicker due to the head milling.
The 1247S-3's ports aren't big enough, but the 1246 428 gaskets have bigger ports and might work, but neither are thick enough. While searching for gaskets I saw that several sites stated that the fel-pros were avalable in thickness' from .060 to .120 ", Has anyone found this to be true ? Looking for recommendations , any help on this.
Thanks
Ted
